Michigan Football is reportedly pursuing Joe Cullen, a former Detroit Lions coordinator.
Cullen offers a wealth of expertise and a possible tactical edge to Michigan. He has a strong background in defensive coordination in both college football and the NFL, including a noteworthy stint as defensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions (2006–2008) and the Baltimore Ravens. His possible hiring might be a big step toward improving the Wolverines’ defensive capabilities by utilizing Cullen’s experience to keep and strengthen the team’s advantage over rivals.
Michigan Football’s pursuit of Joe Cullen is part of a larger plan to continue the program’s tradition of outstanding defense. Cullen would fit right in with the Michigan coaching staff given his past, which includes success with the Baltimore Ravens under John Harbaugh and compatibility with the defense schemes of the team’s most recent coordinators. This action, along with larger staff changes under Moore, demonstrates the program’s dedication to maintaining and improving its defensive capabilities. Cullen might be a game-changing addition to Michigan’s defense, bringing with him a wealth of NFL knowledge and new strategies.
